Steelers Win by 3

Well, it was a tense finish, but the Pittsburgh Steelers managed to beat the New York Jets by 3 points in overtime.

The Steelers have been "my team" since following Terry Bradshaw and the Iron Curtain in the late '70s, but it's been a long time since I've bothered to watch any football. Heck, if it wasn't for a chance encounter watching Ben Roethlisberger and his winning team on the television one Sunday afternoon with my dad, I probably wouldn't be watching it now. But I am, and I'm glad, because I haven't seen football this good in a good long while (of course, I'm sure Jets fans feel completely opposite to this observation, but...).
